that doesn't do anything

the c-pillar does get in the way for people in the back. but Sum of us on here have a "different version" of it too, the one that fits an integra it sits further back right behind the headrests. but u will need to take out interior plastic pieces and cut out a whole in it so the bar can go threw them eachside

Actually both pieces can help, as does any additional chassis bracing. Taking the car to a good shop and having them seam weld everything would be even better, and such shops can also add bracing where it helps most, without having to add crap to the interior.

I have a C-Pillar bar from an acura integra so that people can still fit in the back of my seats without hitting their heads where as it would be if you bought one made for the TC and you just mount it back a little further since its longer.....

if you mount the C-pillar bar to a different hole farther back, you can still use the back passenger seats without people knocking their heads on it...

and yes, i think that center bar...seems completely pointless...
